Symptoms Requiring ENT Attention

Ensure you stay well-hydrated by drinking an adequate amount of water. This helps keep your throat lubricated and functioning optimally.
Refrain from smoking and minimize your exposure to secondhand smoke. Smoke is a significant irritant to the throat and can contribute to various health problems.

For a more detailed and up-close look at your pharynx, we might use a technique called flexible endoscopy. With flexible endoscopy, we use a thin, flexible tube equipped with a camera and a light source. This allows the doctor to view the pharynx and surrounding areas through the nasal passages or mouth. It's usually performed in the office with a local anesthetic spray to numb the area. Flexible endoscopy is particularly valuable for examining the nasopharynx (the area behind the nose) and the oropharynx (the area behind the mouth).
